Product Description
Now you can fit sweeping landscapes into a single frame with the 28mm wide-angle setting. Pull in subjects from far away to capture even subtle facial expressions with the dynamic 280mm telephoto setting. Ideal for traveling, Panasonic's DMC-TZ4 Lumix 8.1-megapixel digital camera combines a wide-ranging LEICA DC Vario-Elmar lens with a handy, compact body. The Extra Optical Zoom function also extends the zoom to as much as 15.9x, giving you even greater telephoto power. Set the TZ4 to iA mode and let the five Intelligent Auto functions team up to help prevent shooting errors. Intelligent Exposure corrects lighting differences, so images come out just the way you see them; Intelligent Scene Selector chooses the mode that best fits the situation; MEGA Optical Image Stabilization helps prevent blurring from hand-shake; Intelligent ISO Control helps prevent motion blur; and Face Detection helps produce clear portraits by optimizing the focus and exposure settings. The Intelligent big bright 2.5" LCD adjusts brightness automatically as the ambient light level changes, so images are clear, bright and easy to see. f=4.6-46mm (35mm equiv - 28-280mm) Focal Length 2.5 Diagonal Polycrystalline TFT LCD Display (230K dots) Focusing Area Normal - Wide 50cm/Tele 200cm - infinity, Macro/Intelligent AUTO / Clipboard - Wide 5cm / Max 200cm / Tele 100cm - infinity 8 - 1/2,000 sec.

1 out of 5 stars Failed in 4 months, warranty too short, other problems   October 10, 2008
frannyglass (Somerville, MA)
This camera has great features and great value.
Except:
1. The camera failed after 4 months--and wouldn't turn on.
2. The camera has a problem focusing when you're fully zoomed in
3. The control wheel at the top is poorly designed so that it gets moved and out of place all the time
4. The warranty that Panasonic extends is criminally short: 90 days!
5. The screen sticks out from the camera making it vulnerable to breakage and making it highly susceptible to glare.

Otherwise it's a great value for the money!



5 out of 5 stars Love the zoom   October 9, 2008
Picky Ooney (Midwest)
As easy to use as my Canon Elph was. A bit bigger but worth it for the 10x zoom!!!

5 out of 5 stars Great Camera, Great Service   September 16, 2008
Ginny Wojtkowski (Illinois, close to St. Louis)
I have previously owned a DMC-TZ3 and enjoyed it very much and originally purchased it for the zoom capabilities. However it was ruined by my best friend while on vacation so it needed to be replaced. Since I was familiar with the TZ3 and still had all the accesories (which are the same) I decided to buy the TZ4. Amazon had a great price and I ordered it on a Friday and recieved it on Monday. This was after I tried to save more money by purchasing a TZ4 from a place called HDCAMERAWORLD.COM. Avoid this place with a passion, its a total scam with sales people who all sound like a relative of Tony Soprano. In the long run Amazon was only $50 higher than them anyway. The TZ4 has many improvements over the TZ3. It takes much better pictures with only room lighting and no flash. The instant zoom button is also handy. There is a separate switch to playback photos so that you don't have to disturb the settings wheel on top of the camera. The zoom also can be operated while taking movies, where as the TZ3 zoom wouldn't function once the recording started. My only regret is that I was too cheap to purchase the TZ5.


5 out of 5 stars a good compact point and shoot camera   September 9, 2008
Yongfu Wang
It has an excellent Leika len for 10x optical room, and the IA mode is very useful, you can get good quality photos easily, just point and shoot. It would take a while for the camera to focus on the object you want.
